The Ten Grossest Stories... Ever?

Today I realized just how much nursing has desensitized me because I was looking forward to being shaken and revolted to my core by reading these stories. Instead, I just chuckled and shook my head as I was reminded of shifts past. But I hope these manage to offend and sicken you :) And if you have stories that can outgross these, tell me!

Never saw this personally, but I heard a story about a guy who developed a case of fournier's from shaving his 'nads, and had to have a neo-scrotum surgically reconstructed, obviously after extensive debridement.

I'm not in the medical profession, and I gotta say, I was kind of disappointed in the stories. I was anticipating disgust and maybe a couple nightmares, and all I could think was "That's it?" I actually thought they were pretty hilarious (...sorry?)!I do have a couple of (not serious) health issues, so I'm not naive to health mishaps, but still! You'd think they could have picked some really icky stuff. :(

I like my job. I do not want to lose it for violating patient confidentiality. I have a fairly active imagination so altering identifying details is something I enjoy. Everything here is altered to protect patient confidentiality. If you think that a story is referring to you, it’s not. If you think a picture is from your medical exam, it’s not.
